Lavenderflight emerged from the warrior's den, looking a little disheveled. he sat down and began to roughly groom down his fur, grumbling to himself as he struggled with tugging out bits of leaves- debris often stuck in the long, silky strands. he finally shook before looking around, bright chartreuse eyes examining the other cats in the vicinity before he let out a yawn and settled down.

Copperlily♀ - Age: 56 moons - Location: medicine den - Tags: Nightpaw/Nettlepaw/open -

The day was good. There wasn't too much for Copperlily to do since she had gone out early in the morning to collect herbs before Nettlepaw was awake. Although Nettlepaw had to hold down the fort while she was gone, all was well now. The soft brown cat now sat in the back of the herb store, cleaning dusty old herbs out from the back where herbs and seeds would pile up when breezes blew into the den just right. Listening to the young apprentices talk, she brushed the dust past the two with her tail and out the entrance. "It is simply a different mindset than you are used to Nightpaw." Copperlily replied as she came back, taking a seat near the apprentices. "Learning what some herbs do is good for anyone, not just medicine cats. Anyone can learn if they are interested enough." Although she was known for her sharp tongue, those who were around her enough knew that she was mostly looking out for everyone. Ever since she had taken on Nettlepaw as her apprentice, it was almost as if she had gotten Nightpaw as well since the two were together so often. Since her previous apprentice had passed on from a fox attack moons ago, she was watchful of the young cats, even though she was technically only responsible for the one.

Dewpelt♀ - Age: 25 moons - Location: camp - Tags: open -

Having been on an early morning hunting patrol, Dewpelt hadn't been able to find her apprentice yet to see if she was ready for training. She knew that it wasn't too big of a deal since Nightpaw had been doing very well recently. Scanning the camp for a minute to see if the black and white apprentice was in sight, she was unsuccessful. Taking a mouse from the growing fresh kill pile, the silvery grey warrior sat to eat a quick meal. The day was good so far and she wasn't worried about too many things going on. She had noticed Sootstar talking to an unfamiliar cat but she decided that it wasn't any of her business, even though she would be more than ready to ask Sootstar about what it was all about if she could muster up the courage. Dewpelt ate quietly and quickly, almost as if she didn't want to disturb anything that was going on around her. Whether it was a conversation between her clanmates, or a butterfly flittering through the trees. There was nothing quite as nice as being able to simply be a part of the day.

He dipped his head in acknowledgment and began to roll over slowly, allowing enough time for Tealpaw to jump down. When he started getting closer to the ground, Blackstreak shouted, "Jump off now and pretend to attack my underside!"

"Well..." she began, about to disregard Nightpaw's compliment, but thought against it. Nettlepaw smiled and simply dipped her head, a little bashful. She brushed the poppy seed off of her paw back into the pile with the other seeds and turned to bring her friend away from the leaves. It was somewhat obvious that Nightpaw didn't find the smell of herbs very pleasant. "I guess so, but I certainly couldn't remember all of those fighting moves or how to hunt properly! Living things move around too fast," Nettlepaw commented and nudged the other she-cat. At Copperlily's words, she remained silent but gave a pointed look at Nightpaw before breaking out into a tiny grin.

{Nightpaw}

She-cat--Apprentice--11 Moons--Single--mentor is Dewpelt--Happy--TAGS:Nettlepaw & Copperlily/In Med den

Nightpaw has been so enamored in her conversation with Nettlepaw that she had failed to even notice Copperlily's return. The warrior apprentice struggled with her ability to focus but sometimes she had the tendency to focus too much. This was something that had been pointed out to her by a few of the older warriors and something she tried to work on.
Due to this hyperfocused state she didn't even notice the medicine cat until she spoke. Turning her head to look at the older cat as she sat nearby Nightpaw smiled politely. "Really?" She questioned, her eyes widening in surprise at the comment. "Do you think Dewpelt was waiting to teach me about herbs then?" She questioned the medicine cat. "Or can Nettlepaw still teach me?" Nightpaw glanced over at Nettlepaw before feeling her nudge her. She chuckled at her and grinned back, temporarily distracted from her previous question. "I guess you don't have to chase after poppyseeds very often huh?" Nightpaw amused herself with the thought of the medicine cats having to hunt down their herbs like she had to hunt down prey. The idea of them chasing after a squirrel was particularly funny to her for some reason. If Nettlepaw was allowed to teach her a few things maybe it would be alright if she could do the same? Knowing how to defend yourself was important for any cat after all, not to mention the idea just sounded fun.

{Aspenblaze}

Tom-cat--Warrior--26 Moons--Single--No apprentice--Bored--TAGS:Creamflower & Others/Camp

"I see, perhaps in the next few Sun highs the clan will have a few more future warriors then" he mused with fake interest. He opened his maw to say something more then Dewpelt came over to the fresh-kill pile. The warrior grabbed something and quietly ate it without disturbing himself and Creamflower. Aspenblaze allowed his gaze to shift from the queen over towards the warrior a few tail lengths away.
Dewpelt was the sort of cat Aspenblaze found a challenge, but an interesting one. She was quiet and didn't tend to give him much information to work on when he wanted to tease or flirt with her. Much like Creamflower he had come to learn she wasn't interested in him; however, unlike Creamflower, Aspenblaze had noticed Dewpelt was soft on a certain tom. He had only been in the clan for 5 moons but he had observed the cats carefully to ensure he could meld into their dynamics. It hadn't taken him long to notice Dewpelt's crush on the leader, Sootstar. It was amusing to watch her clam up like a kit in front of the tom.
A mischevious grin spread across his face as he called out to her "Good morning Dewpelt, care to join Creamflower and I over here?" The talk of kits had bored him but he was not callused enough to just leave Creamflower suddenly.
He also noticed Lavenderflight exit the warrior den as he called out for the she-cat but didn't say anything. Unlike Dewpelt or Creamflower the tom didn't offer him much entertainment. He was much too serious and hard to read. This made him hard to tease or analyze. He would be willing to talk to him if the tom reached out or decided to join them but he was unsure how to make that initial conversation without angering him.

{Thrushcry}

Tom-cat--Warrior--28 Moons--Single--No apprentice--Grumpy--TAGS:Roseflames and Blackfang/Forest

The she-cat's reassuring comments did little to make the tom feel comfortable with the stranger in the camp. If it hadn't been for the fact they were on a much-needed patrol he would have likely stayed behind to keep an eye on the cat personally. Every muscle in his body yearned to take revenge for his lost ones on anyone at this point- it didn't matter if the stranger had been involved in their death or not.
He grunted at Blackfang's attempt for conversation before focusing his attention on the bird she spotted. A bird wouldn't fill too many bellies-but it would be a start. He flicked his tail letting Blackfang and Roseflames know he had heard and noticed the creature aswell. The three of them would need to remain quiet if they planned to sneak up on the bird after all. If they were lucky enough maybe they had stumbled upon a nest. The compact tom was not particularly built for quick and quiet climbing so he stood back waiting for one of the she-cats to step up.

{Ember}

She-cat--Rogue/Kittypet--34 Moons--Single--Fine--TAGS:Alone/Twoleg yard

Ember sat on the fence separating her twoleg yard from the Driftclan forest. She stared out into the forest lost in her thoughts.
For the last 15 months, she has called this particular twoleg den her home. It was a hard adjustment for her at first but a necessary one, and one she has now completely used to. She spent her days comfortable and safe. No fighting for food and survival, only relaxation and wet food filled her days.
Currently though, she was thinking about a rumor that had begun to spread throughout the neighborhood a week earlier. She had just finished her food when the sound of cat voices outside had gotten her attention. A few cats she knew from her time as a rogue had been passing by and blabbering on about something regarding Driftclan. She had initially intended to ignore the cats but something they said had caught her attention. Driftstar was dead- or so the two said. Ember was not about to bring attention to herself and ask them, the two cats not being the best of company-or friendliest of felines. Their conversation had stuck with Ember and ever since a complex emotion had been growing in her chest. Was the cruel leader really dead? How had it happened? She found herself wondering these questions as she stared off into the forest.

"The ocean.. it honestly sounds amazing Swifttooth. I would like to see it one day." He tries to imagine the ocean in his mind but could only come up with a really, really big lake, but he felt like he was close to the real thing.
"How did you end up here, if you don't mind me asking." He looks back at the younger she cat in wonder. She talks as if she loved the sea, but couldn't understand why she was far away of something she loves.

"My crew and I were sailing and got caught in the biggest storm we've ever seen. Lost the entire crew due to huge and thrashing waves. While trying and failing to save my crew mates I fell overboard as well, while fighting to stay above the waves I swam to this shore."

Having been lost in her own thoughts for a moment, Dewpelt jolted faintly as Aspenblaze called her over. She smiled warmly and stood, padding softly over to Creamflower and Aspenblaze. "Good morning Aspenblaze, Creamflower," she responded kindly as she took a seat. The warrior knew Aspenblaze and his personality, but she never had to long for amusement when he was around.


I'll fix this later I need to go to class...

He looked over to the young she-cat walking into the camp with Sootstar and Nettlepaw "Hm, I don't see that this cat could be any problem...as long some of our clanmates don't get angry to have stranger inside our camp" he meowed silently. Blinking his eyes he turned to face the queen again "I am doing fine, I guess.. so what about you? Everything alright with you and the kits?" he asked politely.

She listened to the other cats talking about this stranger she-cat who appeared into their camp with Sootstar, she knew that there were some problems with rogues, but somehow she felt like this stranger was not like them. She flicked her ears toward the bird both of the other warrior's notice "that bird is enough for one to catch, I am going further to find something other preys to catch" she meowed silently.

He lightly nodded to her, as she started to roll he quickly jumped away from her back and made an almost land to her stomach, giving a little paw poke to her belly "like this?" he meowed.

She looked around the forest, flicking her ears over to her mentor when he told her to step in front of him. She made two jumps forward then turned around to face her mentor "now what?" she meowed preparing for anything her mentor was going to do now.

Creamflower watches as Aspenblaze asks Dewpelt to join them and smiles as the she-cat makes her way towards them. "Hello Dewpelt!" she greeted warmly. She takes another bite of her fish, savoring the delicious taste.
